Umm...okay...I was going around in the past (winter) and found the temple of time and got the double time song to go forward. I used it to bypass the black stone in front of the temple in the present and got the soaring song. Now I basically have free access to everything already.
Did I break the game? This is too easy! I shouldn't be allowed this much access so soon! I mean, I could use the warping to jimmy everything and go places I wouldn't be allowed to go otherwise. Is this the point? if it is, that's just dumb.
